Netherlands, NOT DUTCH or HOLLAND





Do you think you are open minded and liberal? Do you really think you live in a FREE country? Come to Holland and find out, it will be quite a shock what you discover about your country and yourself.

I believe that should be the slogan of Holland. In Holland, almost everything goes and it is a little of a shock experience at first, but then it all seems so normal.

Since this is a football blog, I will say that the Deuth are defenetly passionate about their team and it was cool to be there when their national team played. Amsterdam dresses orange when their national team plays and people just stop working and got the bars and watch the game.

Here are a few notes of Aimee's and I experience with this country...

1) Way to expensive
2) Drugs, prostitution Yet Crime lower than America per capita
3) Bicycle rides everywhere plus healthy
4) Heineken museum rocks
5) Anna Frank museum rocks
6) Gorgeous city with beautiful canals
7) Yes! marihuana is very much anywhere
8) NO! We did not smoke
9) Orange is the color of the football team because the monarchs were called the orange monarchs
10) It is definitely worth visiting.
11) The official name is Netherlands. Holland because there is a part of the country called North Holland and another called South Holland so people just call it Holland, and Deuth because the British call them that for some reason.
12) Aimee won 50 euros playing with five in a gambling casino.
13) It rained and it was cold our entired trip
14) Mexicans are everwhere. There was a lot of Mexicans here partying and going nuts.
